Description
Benrinnes from 2000, matured for 15 years in a refill bourbon barrel, retains the distillery's characteristic oily, slightly sulphury character without excessive wood influence. The refill cask allows the spirit's natural density and waxy texture to dominate, with a measured approach to maturation that suits Benrinnes' robust distillery profile. This independent release of 182 bottles represents a snapshot of the distillery's traditional house style. Best for those who appreciate unadorned Speyside character and the complexity of well-aged, lightly-wooded single malts.
